The adhesive compositions of Tables 2 and 3, above, were cast in between2 mil rollers with release paper on both sides. The adhesivecompositions were poured on a 1.88 lbs/100 sq ft nonwoven glass matsubstrate for a top coat of the adhesive composition at 10 mils and thenpoured between the 2 mil rollers on the back side for another 10 mils tomake the bottom coat, thereby forming an adhesive substrate. For anadhesive substrate having a single coat construction, the same compoundwas used to pour the top and back of the adhesive substrate. For a dualcoat construction, the top coat was a different adhesive compositionthan the bottom coat. The finished adhesive substrates were then cooled,cut and tested for ASTM D1970 plywood peel adhesion at three differentconditions (40° F., 73° F. and 140° F.). A portion of each adhesivesubstrate was also put into a 120° F. convection oven to condition for 2weeks and then tested for plywood adhesion to obtain aged peel valuesunder ASTM D1970.
